  • Welcome to my blog!

    Hi! I'm Traci. I'm a Registered Nurse who loves quilting, knitting, cross stitch, and the great outdoors. In my pre-scrubs life, I owned Real Photography, and you can still see my old wedding and portrait photography site here .

    I've created a map that shows links to our camping/hiking/general family fun review posts that you can find here. It's pretty much the coolest thing on this site. Thanks, Google!

    I great big puffy heart *love* comments, so please let me know you visited! I try to always reply!

Today I bought Will a $0.25 bucket at a garage sale (he’d just been saying this morning that he needed a bigger bucket for sand castle building) and a $1.50 shovel on clearance at Target, and he has spent the last 3 hours in the sandbox.  That works out to a babysitter at $0.58 an hour.  Rockin’ deal.  😉
